Hi there I have a drop down menu that filters https://karendyercostumes.wixsite.com/mysite/Folio
but then when you visit another page and go back again to ‘Folio’ page - (for example click on the logo Karen Dyer, then click on portfolio in the main nav) the drop down menu no longer works.

I’m a designer with very limited development knowledge and have tried many different avenues to try and get help (people per hour, upwork - without success) so please please if anyone can help I would be so grateful. I will even pay!!! My client really needs the site up and I’m getting desperate. My code inserted looks like this:

import wixData from ‘wix-data’;
$w.onReady(function () {
//TODO: write your page related code here…
$w(" #button1 “).onClick(() => {
$w(” #dataset1 “).setFilter(wixData.filter()
.eq(“category”, $w(” #dropdown1 ").value));
});
});

Hi,
It seems to me that the filter isn’t cleared when you navigate between pages, so when you try to filter the second time, the created filter is wrong.
The solution might be to reset the filter every time the page is loaded. Something like:

$w.onReady(function () {
   $w("#Dataset1").setFilter( wixData.filter() );
}
